  • Patent number: 10260179
    Abstract: The present application describes a net with identification and traceability system, in particular a knitted net of the Raschel type, for packing products by wrapping, that contains a position-color scheme distributed across the width of the knitted net and applied during weaving on looms which transposition for numerical code enables the processing of information by electronic reading devices suitable for production management and control. The solution disclosed in the present application aims at complementing identification systems currently applied in these products, in which the identifying code is applied in the cardboard tube wherein the agricultural net is winded, which is destroyed/recycled after application of the net in the field, making it impossible to trace the product.

  • Patent number: 8949853
    Abstract: Technologies are described herein for using stages for managing dependencies between tasks executed in parallel. A request for permission to execute a task from a group or batch of tasks is received. The specified task is retrieved from a task definition list defining a task ID, stage, and maximum stage for each task in the group. If another pending or currently running task exists with a stage and maximum stage less than the stage defined for the retrieved task, then the retrieved task is not allowed to run. If no other pending or currently running task exists with a stage and maximum stage less than the stage defined for the retrieved task, then the permission to execute the specified task is given.
